Perceiving the world and the things that surround us reveals a lot of things about us. Individual perceptions are always unique and different, they reveal that everyone’s way of seeing the world is different.

Firstly look at this picture and decide what you see in it and then check the results below.This will definitely reveal your state of mind.

1. IF YOU FIRST SEE TWO HANDS IN A HOLDING POSTURE

It means that you are in a stable state of mind and want to solve problems in a very peaceful mind with no mess in the head. You are more into logical thinking and not into making random decisions.

2. IF YOU FIRST SEE EXPLOSION SORT OF THING

It means that you are in your creative period. You will deal with problems with a creative mind. You will be certainly thinking of every issue’s solution going out of the box. If you haven’t exposed you this side then you must let everyone know your hidden talent.

3. I SEE A TREE AT FIRST IN THIS PICTURE

It means that you love details in your life and your mind certainly love things to be detailed with. You are in a mind that focuses on important aspects of life only. You likely have an additional quality of comforting people easily.

4. COULDN’T SEE ANY PARTICULAR THING IN THE PICTURE

Your mind is too exhausted to work properly so take rest a little while. Going on a vacation might work for you. Sharing with your friends and family might help you a lot. Good luck.

Sitting too much is bad for your health. But those who work in a corporate organization or office have no other option but to sit in the same place for hours.

In a typical work week, people spend an average of 5 hours and 41 minutes per day sitting at their desk and 7 hours sleeping at night, according to a 2012 study by the British Psychological Society.

The study also found that those who sit longer at work are more likely to sit outside of work, and the more time one spends sitting at work was associated with a decrease in mental well-being.

Given the drawbacks of too much of sitting, health experts advise office workers to get up and move around from time to time. However, it is not always easy to just walk away from the task at hand.

One good solution is a standing desk, which is growing in popularity as workers and managers are increasingly aware of the costs of poor health due to sedentary lifestyles. A standing desk or stand-up desk is a type of desk where you can write, read or work on your computer or laptop while standing up or sitting on a high stool.

Using a standing desk helps reduce the amount of time spent sitting during the workday. Get one installed at your office and your body will thank you for taking this step.

Here are some of the key benefits of using a standing desk.

1. Prevents Obesity

Standing more than sitting in a day can help you to burn more calories, according to some studies. Burning more calories than you eat is the secret behind having a healthy body weight.

This is one reason that health experts recommend using a standing desk at work rather than the traditional desk and chair. Sitting longer is strongly linked to obesity and metabolic disease.

A 2011 study published in the American Journal of Public Health found that use of standing desks in a classroom can cause a significant increase in calorie expenditure.

A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Public Health also concludes that a simple change in classroom furniture can slow the increase in elementary school children’s body mass index (BMI), a key indicator of obesity, by an average of 5.24 percentile points.

However, there is not yet consensus on this matter. Another 2016 study published in the Journal of Physical Activity and Health reports that standing for 15 minutes versus sitting for 15 minutes only resulted in burning about two extra calories. However, substituting periods of sitting with standing may not affect energy expenditure.

2. Reduces Cancer Risk

Lack of physical activity can increase one’s risk for various types of cancer. It is not clear as to why sitting appears to increase cancer risk, but it’s possible that sitting for long hours increases the level of C-reactive protein in people, which may be the reason behind it.

A 2015 study published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers, and Prevention found that spending more leisure time sitting was associated with a higher risk of total cancer risk in women, and specifically with multiple myeloma, breast and ovarian cancers. The higher risk was present even after taking into account BMI, physical activity and other factors.

However, the study did not find any association between sitting time and cancer risk in men.

3. Ensures Longer Life

If you’re among those who sit for several hours at a stretch, standing more may help you live longer. Standing ensures that your body is involved in some kind of physical activity, which in turn reduces the risk of different types of diseases including diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

A 2012 study published in Diabetologia found that sedentary time is associated with an increased risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. Moreover, the strength of the association is most consistent for diabetes.

Another 2012 study published in the BMJ Open found that by reducing sedentary behaviors, such as sitting and watching television, one can increase their life expectancy in the United States.

A 2016 analysis published in the American Journal of Preventative Medicine examined 54 surveys on sitting time and found that sitting more than three hours per day was responsible for 3.8 percent of all-cause mortality (about 433,000 deaths in a year) among 54 countries.

Researchers concluded that reducing sitting time and promoting an active lifestyle can help stave off premature death.

4. Regulates Blood Sugar Levels

Always remember that excessive sedentary time is linked to a greater risk of Type 2 diabetes.

By using a standing desk, you can help clear the sugar from your blood better than while sitting. In fact, it is a simple way to prevent the sudden spikes in blood sugar levels after meals, which is bad for your health.

A 2014 study published in Occupational and Environmental Medicine found that standing-based office work shows encouraging signs of attenuating postprandial glycemic excursion.

Another 2014 study published in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise found that alternating bouts of sitting and standing attenuate postprandial glucose responses in overweight and obese office workers.

A 2015 report from a study by the University of Queensland concludes that an extra two hours a day spent standing rather than sitting was associated with approximately 2 percent lower average fasting blood sugar levels and 11 percent lower average triglycerides (fats in the blood).

5. Improves Posture and Fights Pain

Sitting at your desk for long hours can cause poor posture as well as pain in your neck and back. To improve your posture and reduce pain, a standing desk is very effective.

The simple act of standing improves core strength, which in turn leads to better posture. Also, if you install a standing desk and keep your computer screen just above resting eye level, you do not have to hunch over or slouch to work on your computer.

A 2009 study published in Humane Factors reports that implementing a sit-stand workstation paradigm can be an effective workplace health intervention to reduce musculoskeletal complaints.

A 2014 study published in Occupational and Environmental Medicine found that transitioning from a seated to a standing work posture every 30 minutes throughout the workday, relative to seated work, led to a significant reduction in fatigue levels and lower back discomfort in overweight and obese office workers.

6. Boosts Productivity

A standing workstation can also improve productivity at work, according to a 2016 study published in IIE Transactions on Occupational Ergonomics and Human Factors.

The study compared objective productivity between workers who use a stand-capable desk and a seated control group in a call center over six months. Some 167 employees were used in this study.

After six months, it was found that workers with desks that allowed for standing were about 45 percent more productive on a daily basis than workers who remained seated.

Tips to Maximize the Benefits of a Standing Desk

Start slow to help your body adjust to the change. If you suddenly go from sitting all day to standing all day, you can suffer from back, leg or foot pain. So, if you used to sit for six hours, change it to five hours and slowly continue to reduce your sitting time.

While sitting too much is very bad for your health, standing for too long can put a strain on your legs. Hence, it is recommended to alternate between sitting and standing. For every one hour of sitting, you should try standing for an equal amount of time.

When using a standing desk, you must adjust your desk and computer screen as per your height. This will ensure comfort and prevent strain on your eyes as well as your back.

To deal with standing fatigue, invest in an anti-fatigue mat. These mats encourage subtle movements of leg muscles to ensure proper blood flow.

If using a computer on your standing desk, change your keyboard and mouse positions to reduce strain on your wrists. Also, consider using an arm support that helps reduce pressure on the wrist while operating the mouse.

Even if you are using a standing desk, remember to take regular breaks to move and stretch. This also helps clear your head and give your tired eyes some much-needed rest.

If you find standing too distracting for your work, use your sitting times when you need that extra concentration.

If your health permits, you can opt for a “treadmill desk” that allows you to work on a computer or video conference while walking on a treadmill.

When using a standing desk, be sure to wear comfortable shoes.

Tongue diagnosis is a common method for determining the cause of health issues in some traditional medicines. It is the initial step on the 30-feet digestive tract, and it reveals what occurs under the inner digestive skin, which is the skin that lines the digestive tract.

The inner digestive skin:

Regulates genetic and epigenetic alterations to the human genome

Protects against environmental toxins

Hosts trillions of beneficial bacteria

Regulates the absorption of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients

Is the location of the derivation of 95% of serotonin

Is the place where 80% of the immune system is concentrated

Since we cannot see it, the tongue reveals its state and can indicate the status of the digestion.

A healthy tongue has pinkish color across its entire surface, with small cylindrical taste buds on the top surface. It has a very thin white coating of mucus, with no teeth marks, or cracks on it. It is not too dry or too wet.

The epithelium of the stomach is most directly connected to the appearance of the tongue, so the mucus lining quality can be revealed by the tongue lining.

Swollen Tongue

It means that the lymphatic system has become congested, backing up into the cervical lymph nodes, adenoids, tonsils, and tongue.

Pale Tongue

It is a sign that the body lacks the proper amount of good stomach acid and digestive enzymes in order to digest food properly and absorb nutrients, minerals, and vitamins.

Dry Tongue

This clearly shows that the stomach is dehydrated and it cannot digest foods properly.

Acid Tongue

Acid tongue, characterized by redness, and dryness, is a sign of heartburn, which is caused by the accumulation of stomach acid, which irritates the stomach, tongue, mouth, and esophagus.

Boggy Tongue

A boggy tongue is a sign of digestive issues, and it looks swollen, wet, and pale.

IBS Tongue

The IBS tongue is wet, pale, and smooth, due to the reduced stomach acid in the stomach, in an attempt to protect the intestinal wall from further irritation.

Spinal Or CNS Stress Tongue

Chronic stress in the central nervous system and spinal stress due to injury leads to a deep crack running down the center of the tongue.

Malabsorption Tongue

A clear sign of malabsorption is a tongue with visible teeth marks on the sides, discolored on the surface.

Ama Tongue

In the traditional Ayurvedic medicine, Ama refers to the accumulation of improperly digested food that in turn clogs the intestinal tract.

This causes the accumulation of a thick coating on the tongue, and if this buildup is on the tongue’s back, it indicates toxic deposits in the large intestine.

Movie Star Tongue

This is the state of a red, moist, and smooth tongue. The tongue becomes red due to the excessive amounts of acid in the body, moist due to the high mucus levels released to protect the stomach lining, and smooth, as a result of the retracted taste buds.

Wet Tongue

A wet tongue can be a result of the excessive levels of Kapha (phlegm) caused by undigested proteins, such as gluten or casein, chronic stress, or severely irritated stomach lining, or intestinal wall.

Stress Tongue

In the case of stress, the tongue becomes dry and has numerous small cracks on the surface.Therefore, next time you are feeling off balance, just look at your tongue, and you will easily diagnose the cause of it!

The head of a child has two times greater capacity to absorb radiation, and the bone marrow of its skull absorbs ten times the radiation absorbed by an adult. This exposure raises the risks of developing cancer and brain tumor, and severely affects the development of the brain.

Social Interactions and Anxiety

As children become more prone to using technology, they fail to develop face-to-face social skills. They easily express their emotions and thoughts by texting and messaging, and cannot learn to express and understand tone, touch, body language, voice, and facial expressions.

This also influences their skills to communicate and have meaningful interactions and relationships, and solve problems.

Poor Sleep

Children need more sleep than adult people, and the use of mobile phones and screens interferes with the quality and quantity of sleep. This leads to serious negative consequences on their mental and physical health and development.

Aggression

You cannot control everything your child encounters on the Internet, so it might easily become exposed to violent media, especially via online games, that will lead to antisocial tendencies and aggressive behavior.

Learning Difficulties

Children easily access to various entertainment forms on the internet, so they become distracted and face difficulties to pay attention at school. This, in turn, causes impaired visual memory, inability to focus, reduced imagination, and less productive work.

Eye Strain

Prolonged use of screens might cause digital eye strain in both adults and children, and children are at an increased risk. This is also accompanied by sore eyes, headaches, and blurred vision.

Mental Health

Cell phones impair the mental health of children, and there are numerous factors linked to the use of cell phones and constant connection that affect their mental health:

Cyberbullying: Children are at an increased risk of cyberbullying, which causes anxiety, depression, extreme isolation, and even suicide.

Sexual pressure: Children are also exposed to suggestive images and suggestions to take part in “sexting”, long before they can understand these topics, which can contribute to mental and emotional distress, and anxiety.

Facebook Depression: Children are not aware that people usually share their highlight reel on social media, so they can easily become depressed about their appearance, life, and abilities.

Targeted advertising: Social media and other websites gather information about every individual and then display ads that would be interesting, and children might face media and advertisements that they are not able to deal with or process in the right way.

Reduced Health

Researchers have found that media and technology use leads to illnesses in children and adolescents, as well as mental and emotional difficulties. Children become more susceptible to pain, depression, and social and learning disabilities.

Poor Posture

The long hours spent on the computers or cell phones deteriorate the body posture of children, which in turn might increase the risk of certain musculoskeletal disorders.

Increased Risk of Obesity

Studies have found a link between the use of technology and the raised BMI in children and adolescents, which is mostly a result of the prolonged hours spent sitting.

Moreover, children who spend most of their time using cell phones, tablets, computers, and video games, tend to snack more and thus consume more calories.

Addiction

Certain media types have been linked to the frontostriatal pathway, which is the same neural pathway that is related to drug addiction and behavioral disorders, like gambling, so the unlimited access to the internet, social media, and video games might raise the risk of developing these problems.

Prevent Your children from Becoming Addicted to Screens

We suggest several ways to prevent your children from spending too much time in front of the screens:

Set time limits on TV and internet time, for instance, the children can use the cell phone or tablet only half an hour daily.

Encourage your children to spend more time with their friends outside when the weather is nice.

You need to set rules about the time they can get a cell phone, for example, when they are in high school.

If your kid owns a cell phone, you can limit the time it spends on the internet by allowing access only when it is connected to Wi-Fi.

Set rules about when your child can use the cell phone, for instance, only during his free time, not while having lunch or dinner, or when your friends or relatives visit you.

Your child should use the cell phone until half an hour before going to bed. Instead, encourage your children to start reading before going to sleep.
